Title: Geometrically optimized fast neutron detector
Inventor: ODOM RICHARD C
IPC: G01V5/10
Filed: 2002-03-07
Granted: 2011-02-15
Abstract: An improved fast neutron detector fabricated with alternating layers of hydrogenous, optically transparent, non scintillating material and scintillating material. Fast neutrons interact with the hydrogenous material generating recoil protons. The recoil protons enter the scintillating material resulting in scintillations.  The detector is optically coupled to a photomultiplier tube which generates electrical pulses proportional in amplitude to the intensity of the scintillations, and therefore are an indication of the energy of the fast neutrons impinging upon the detector. Alternating layers of materials are dimensioned to optimize total efficiency of the detector, or to optimize the spectroscopy efficiency of the detector. The scintillating material is preferably ZnS, and the hydrogenous material is preferably plastic. The detector is ideally suited for well logging applications and fast neutron monitor applications.

Abstract: A dual valve fitting enables quick measurement of pressure contained within a housing and a dual valve fitting that includes first and second valve bodies.  The first valve body defines a flow passage from a threaded end to a protuberant end which is shaped to mate with a female coupler of a quick connect device. A first valve in the flow passage features a poppet type head at a top end of a valve stem that is seatable against an outer annular valve seat formed in the flow passage. A first biasing mechanism compels the poppet type head against the outer annular valve seat so that the first valve is normally closed. The second valve body defines a flow bore from an upper threaded end to a lower threaded end which communicates with the flow passage of the first valve body. The upper threaded end connects with the treaded end of the first valve body whereas the lower threaded end is designed to screw into a threaded bore of a housing. Situated in the flow bore, a second valve features a retainer that defines in a top end a recess that retains a check type valve that is seatable against an inner annular valve seat formed in the flow bore. A second mechanism for biasing acts upon the retainer so that the check type valve therein seats against the inner annular valve seat thereby rendering the second valve normally closed. A stem extension is disposed between a bottom end of the valve stem and a top side of the check type valve. When mated to the protuberant end of the fitting, such female coupler causes translation of the valve stem, the stem extension and the retainer thereby opening both the first and second valves. This allows flow from such housing through the flow bore and the flow passage and into such female coupler.

Abstract: A spectrometric instrument which exhibits an intrinsic profile for a sharp spectral line produces profile data for narrow spectral lines. The spectral lines are effected with a high finesse etalon of gold coated polymer. A transformation filter is computed for transforming the profile data to a gaussian profile. A wavelength calibration is combined with the filter to effect a correction matrix which is applied to sample data to generate calibrated standardized data. Iteratively a correction matrix is applied to calibration data to generate standardized calibration data which is utilized for the wavelength calibration. Calibration is effected with an optical standard, an interference etalon and a fringe formula. Etalon effective thickness is first estimated and then precisely determined so that fringe peaks calibrate wavelength.

Title: Automatic equalization of video signals
Inventor: AHERN STEPHEN M
IPC: H04N7/10
Filed: 2003-02-19
Granted: 2010-08-24
Abstract: This invention is a video compensation system for analog video transmission.  The compensation system is employed in an analog video switching circuit such that each time a conductive path is switched, the system automatically tests the new switch path for a new compensation value. The compensation value is determined by measuring the response of the new path to a set of tones that are applied to the conductive path, the response to which is measured against a table of responses previously recorded. The measured responses are compared to the recorded responses to determine an appropriate compensation control voltage (Vl, Vm, Vh), which is applied to an equalizer system (50-54). In an alternative embodiment, skew compensations also provided between red, green, and blue twisted pair lines in the cables by performing comparative analysis between corresponding pairs of the red, green, and blue signals.
